| Abstract: | The convective motion of a nonisothermal fluid in a gravity field in a vibrating cavity is caused by two mechanisms: the usual static mechanism and a vibrational mechanism. The same mechanisms are also responsible for mechanical equilibrium crisis under the conditions in which such equilibrium is possible. The research on these questions is reviewed in [1]. The problems of vibrational-convective stability examined so far relate to cases in which the nonisothermicity was created by specifying the temperature at the boundaries of the region. The present study is concerned with the vibrational-convective stability of a fluid in which the temperature nonuniformity is created by internal heat generation.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 5, pp. 3–7, September–October, 1985. |
